Saxon Primary School

Pupil Medication Request

Where possible the need for medicines to be administered at school should be avoided. Parents are therefore requested to try to arrange the timing of doses to avoid lesson time and the subsequent impact on your child's learning. Please note, when medication is prescribed 3 times per day we will not be able to administer at school as this can be achieved outside school hours.

We will administer medicines to your child as close as possible between the hours of 12pm and 1pm only.

My child will be responsible for the self administration of medicines as directed belowI agree to members of staff administering medicines/providing treatment to my child as directed below

I agree to update information about the child's medical needs held by the school and that this information will be verified by GP and/or medical Consultant. I will ensure that the medicine held by the school has not exceeded its expiry date.
